I would like to send out a plea for help in obtaining sources on borrowing
in Cree, specifically English and French borrowings, and particularly
authoritative, linguistics-oriented material, especially in Moose Cree. Short
of taking a trip to James Bay (which would be nice, if a little cold just now)
I can't seem to get my hands on what I need. Anything available would be much
appreciated. Candace Rodman Zhang

Quite a while ago, someone posted anecdotal information about
Martin Joos, I think perhaps including conversation with him,
that contextualized some of his more provocative remarks in
print. The effect was that he sometimes overstated things
so as to stimulate discussion. I would appreciate more
information about this. Can anyone help?
